I'm going to be honest: I remembered nothing about the original argument but I'll always remember the imagery of that post.

EDIT: I just re-read it and I'm glad it was basically about posting and forums rules and not something way worse. I'd feel like a huge dick remembering that post so fondly if it was about something super hosed up.

Marching Powder invested in Star Citizen, a game made famous for NOT having any sumo in it.

I have a bunch now:



My apartment has a sort of front room where my fan towels, tegata, sumo nanoblocks, Gunbai and (once I get it back from the framer) the picture banzuke. Anyone who doesn't know I like sumo would find out immediately on entry.

In the case of the latter, it's probably the injury (and/or the reduced practice time he's had due to that injury) holding him back this basho rather than it being a mental thing.

I guess I just feel like he tends to choke far too often. The former is in some mental block, he should be getting more wins on the regular.
